Superflex Fantasy Football Mock Draft: 12-Team (2024)

Another day, FantasyPros provided another fantasy football mock draft to help you navigate your drafts and understand movement within the average draft position (ADP) board. Today, we will provide an early draft pick in a Superflex league with a half-PPR scoring system fantasy football mock draft. With 12 teams in the league, we must ensure we navigate the board correctly to give our team the advantage this season.

Superflex Fantasy Football Mock Draft

1.04 – Jalen Hurts (QB – PHI)

Jalen Hurts is a cheat code for fantasy football. Even with his dip in production, he still finished as QB2, providing 21.9 fantasy points per game. The Tush Push and his mobility create a Konami Code that gives you the ultimate advantage in fantasy football. This year, he gets an upgrade at offensive coordinator and a better running back in Saquon Barkley. The Eagles offense is ready to explode and provide fantasy points for your team.

2.09 – Jonathan Taylor (RB – IND)

A workhorse back in a great offense is always welcomed on our teams. The Colts will create a nightmare for defensive coordinators with the RPO game consisting of Anthony Richardson and Jonathan Taylor. If Taylor is healthy, he will see over 20 touches per game, as in Weeks 7-18 of 2023.

3.04 – Derrick Henry (RB – BAL)

Can you say workhorse running back? It’s all King Henry knows. We have all seen the workout videos that show how he stays so healthy and dominant in the NFL. Henry is a part of one of the best offenses in the league and is primed for more opportunities to take attempts inside the five for his new team this year.

4.09 – Deebo Samuel (WR – SF)

Having a dual-threat wide receiver is rare, but here we are with the Swiss Army knife, Deebo Samuel. Deebo can be deployed in the backfield, out wide, or in the slot, beating whatever defender lines up against him. We love great players in great offenses, especially when the 49ers are on the verge of trading his cohort Brandon Aiyuk, making Deebo the WR1 for San Francisco.

5.04 – DK Metcalf (WR – SEA)

Metcalf is one of our favorite targets within mock drafts this season. Metcalf finished with a 23% target share and eight touchdowns. Those touchdowns were scored on the fifth most end zone targets (15). Metcalf now enters a pass-happy offense and should continue to receive alpha receiver target shares in 2024.

6.09 – Aaron Rodgers (QB – NYJ)

With Superflex rules, we need to get ourselves a second quarterback. Rodgers’s age is a concern, but his talent is unquestioned. As long as Rodgers stays healthy, the New York Jets offense will be one of the squads to fear in the season.

7.04 – Najee Harris (RB – PIT)

With Jaylen Warren dealing with a soft tissue injury, Harris should become a bell-cow running back that we snagged in the seventh round. Harris is a dominant runner who uses his strength to bulldoze the defense. Harris has three straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons, and this year will face the fifth easiest strength of schedule. This draft selection is a set-it-and-forget-it for this Superflex roster.

8.09 – Calvin Ridley (WR – TEN)

We can add a team’s WR1 in the eighth round in this mock draft. Whenever that can happen, we should rejoice. The Titans face an easy strength of schedule, and Ridley should dominate this offense. His new coach, Brian Callahan, wants to use Ridley like he used Ja’Marr Chase in Cincinnati. Last year for the Jaguars, Ridley boasted a 22.5% target share and 36% air yard share. Ridley may be aging, but he can still dominate cornerbacks every week.

9.04 – Jayden Reed (WR – GB)

Reed falls to the ninth round because of his role within the offense. He is primarily a slot wide receiver. Despite not playing a full-time role, he was heavily targeted when he was in the game, with a 25% target rate per route. Reed produced for fantasy last year as his fantasy points per game (FPPG) sat at 10.6 while landing in the endzone ten times. We love good players in good offenses, and the Green Bay Packers are one of the best in the NFL this season.

10.09 – Kyle Pitts (TE – ATL)

A 10th-round athletic tight end with a top-three role within the offense is like gold on Christmas day. We do not understand why he fell to us, maybe because people are wary of the last few seasons, but now it’s a different animal in Atlanta. First, Pitts is healthy this year, unlike last year. He also has an upgrade within his coaching staff and at quarterback with Kirk Cousins. We are ready to be hurt again in the 10th round, like Michael Scott with his dating life.

11.04 – Will Levis (QB – TEN)

In a Superflex league, you must have depth at the most critical position in football. Will Levis is a starting quarterback in the NFL with a cannon arm. He does struggle with accuracy because of the tightness in his upper body. However, Levis gets to face one of the easiest strengths of schedules this season, which will allow him to open up and bring back the Levis we saw in his NFL debut, who threw for four touchdowns. We also get to create a stack with Calvin Ridley, who we drafted earlier in this mock.

12.09 – Brian Thomas Jr. (WR – JAC)

In the 12th round, to find a player this explosive to bolster your roster is rare. We love to draft good players from good offenses, and Brian Thomas has the potential to be the best wide receiver in the Jaguars organization. His ability to blow the roof off the defense will be helpful during games and for your fantasy football team.

13.04 – Justice Hill (RB – BAL)

We live in pure handcuff land this late in the draft due to our earlier selection of Derrick Henry. We want to keep our investment in the Baltimore Ravens’ offense. Last year, Hill saw 39 targets, and we can expect more snaps allotted to Hill as Henry is more of a rusher than a pass catcher.

Our Draft Wizard delivered a beautiful grade of an A-
